Boy, it is tough when we don’t know if we are at party or on business!   We hope we didn’t just fall from the sky in the past few days.  But, sometimes when trying to get into the Internet Social networking process, it is easy to wonder if we’ve arrived when the party is almost over. 

   Social networking can be the party side of the Internet or the support community side where people get information and share information about work, hobbies, life skills and many other topics.  A good community had some place for humor and some of the party life, but typically, the predominant voice is to share useful information.

    newbie.png by Angela Smith has clear, easy to apply tips for getting
 
       into the most productive groove in your internet social networking activities at a reasonable price of $14.95.   

     Angela is an Ozarks native, who still lives and works in her virtual assistant practice, Accu-Assist.  With a technical background, Angela has written several other items that are office useful, plus some of her products include regular updates to keep the links and information freshly applicable.

         Angela is a moderator on the Virtual Assistant Revolution and VA-Networking (VANA).  She has been working in the trenches encouraging new people while they grow their online wings.  She has seen it all and been there on the working side to comfort moderators and site owners when newbies unintentionally make a mess.

      Since we didn’t just fall from the sky, we have some concept about the networking or rainmaking process that goes on through the internet.  It is valuable and fun.  It is important. Just how hard can it be to communicate successfully online?

   How hard it can be depends on skill, experience, personality type and other things.  Networking online is a completely VIRTUAL experience in a completely VIRTUAL environment.   If you are a doctor, lawyer, baker, candlestick maker, investment banker, ditch digger or diplomat, suddenly, you are communicating faster than usual.  Fingerblabbing comments and bumping the enter key too soon.  You know… Plus, it is all on BLACK and WHITE, with little room for body language, nuances that would indicate friendly attitudes.  You know…

   newbie.png makes that track so much easier to follow.  Angela, in CLEAR, concise, and interesting pages, takes readers by the hand and leads them through information about how to:

  • Stand out in the Crowd
  • Do things right the FIRST time (with a great list of forum faux pas to avoid.)
  • Get Known
  • Make Personal Connections

        You don’t have to be a newbie to learn from this book.   Readers will some experience will find answers to nagging questions and comfort from assurance of things they have done right.   These guidelines are written with an encouraging voice.

ALL THIS and a GREAT PRICE: $14.95. 

 

I encourage you to check it out!  Business people can use this information and share it with their clients and customers.   Have a new client or a friend who is uncomfortable on the Internet?  But them a copy as a gift and help them avoid learning the hard way as some of us have done.
